Chapter 395: Resentment Slave

Resentment, extreme resentment.

This wave of resentment hates the heavens, hates the earth, hates everything, and has already materialized, turning into a black liquid that constantly writhes, spreading toward the surrounding Unknown Darkness and engulfing it.

This is the shape of this monster, yet it has no fixed form.

In fact, when this monster lunged in front of Li Heng and the other, it did not stop; it continued forward, and the viscous, twisted, pitch-black liquid was about to stain their bodies.

Only then did An Yu react and scramble to respond.

The red light blooming from her body erupted, forming a small light shield that enveloped Li Heng and herself, temporarily resisting the encroachment of this pitch-black liquid.

However, these liquids clung directly to the surface of the light shield, gradually eroding the shield itself, and the shield became unstable, flickering in and out of existence, as if it would shatter at any moment.

"Exalted One, run! This is a Resentment Slave, one of the most Terror-inducing monsters." An Yu said in a panic, regretting her actions deeply; she wondered if she hadn't checked the almanac before leaving, to have actually run into such a monster.

Once targeted by a Resentment Slave, it is a life of nine deaths and one survival.

She had once witnessed with her own eyes a fiend stronger than herself encounter a Resentment Slave, only to be devoured by it and left without a complete corpse.

Yet, she was even more puzzled in her heart.

Why is this?

A Golden Opportunity is noble, but it counts for nothing inside this Rift; why would something neither high nor low attract a Resentment Slave? Shouldn't a terrifying monster like a Resentment Slave be guarding a Colored Opportunity above a Golden Opportunity?

Li Heng did not move, his eyes narrowed slightly.

A Resentment Slave?

The strength of this Resentment Slave is indeed powerful, faintly exceeding the Void Dao Realm; although it has not yet reached the level of the Creation Realm, when facing the Void Dao Realm, it is an invincible existence.

That is why An Yu is so panicked and afraid.

And the power on this Resentment Slave makes him feel even more interested. He can perceive that this power of resentment, of hating everything, does not come from the Mysterious Calamity, nor does it match the Unknown of the Mysterious Calamity.

This kind of power seems to come from another kind of Disaster!

If this so-called Resentment Slave comes from the True Realm, then the speculation that multiple Calamities exist in the True Realm is undoubtedly true.

At this moment, An Yu's face was pale; the light shield she had manifested with all her might had already been more than half eroded and assimilated by the pitch-black liquid and was about to shatter, and a look of despair immediately appeared on her face.

Li Heng glanced at An Yu.

"You are quite clever, so I will let it slide this time."

He raised his hand and tapped lightly; An Yu's red light shield shattered instantly, and an invisible wave of power rippled out, touching this Resentment Slave monster, subsequently wrapping around it and imprisoning it.

An Yu was stunned.

What kind of power is this? What level?

Although she had long known that Li Heng was stronger than her, she had held onto a fluke in her heart just now, thinking that if Li Heng made a move, he might be able to deal with this Resentment Slave.

But that was, after all, just a fluke.

And in that fluke, she did not think Li Heng would solve this Resentment Slave so nonchalantly; at the very least, it would take a battle of three hundred rounds and a great price to pay.

After all, this is a Resentment Slave, one of the most Terror-inducing monsters!

Yet now, it was suppressed so easily?

An Yu only felt her throat go dry.

This kind of suppression and live capture is even more terrifying than directly obliterating the Resentment Slave!

At this moment, she realized how ridiculous her thoughts just now were; she had actually wanted to run away while Li Heng and the Resentment Slave clashed, hoping they would both be injured or that he would be too distracted?

That was simply courting death.

"Interesting thing."

Li Heng ignored An Yu, who was busy with her own wild imagination, and leaned closer to this Resentment Slave monster to observe it carefully, discovering that this monster could not be called a living creature, but could only be counted as a thing.

It was purely composed of resentful hatred.

And he discovered that the pitch-black liquid composing this monster, this materialized hatred and resentment, did not fuse with the surrounding Unknown Darkness, but was instead constantly resisting and devouring it.

This phenomenon is very strange.

Clearly, both are pitch-black things, without the slightest impurity, both being darkness that can even swallow light. But once a person looks, they can still easily distinguish the two.

Li Heng pondered in his heart.

The surrounding Unknown Darkness is likely the power of the Mysterious Calamity, while the power on this Resentment Slave is another kind of Disaster, and it is resisting the power of the Mysterious Calamity.

Does that mean that the Mysterious Calamity is not supreme, and that there are actually other Disasters on par with the Mysterious Calamity, or perhaps, ones that can barely keep pace with it?

After thinking for a moment, he placed the Jade Slip recording the One Sword Separates the World Supernatural Ability in front of this Resentment Slave. He wanted to see if this Resentment Slave had any connection to this Jade Slip.

Then, unexpectedly, this Resentment Slave had no reaction.

Li Heng frowned; had he guessed wrong?

Originally, he had thought this Resentment Slave might be related to this Jade Slip, and perhaps even speculated it might be related to the Tianjian Sect, such as this Resentment Slave originally being a disciple of the Tianjian Sect.

Suddenly, a sound of "hehe" rang out in the surroundings.

"Younger Brother, your idea is brilliant; using a Resentment Slave to fish, and then we sit back and reap the rewards—brilliant, brilliant. But is this not a bit risky? This Resentment Slave is quite Terror-inducing."

"Older Brother, you can rest assured."

"I have already tested it; as long as that thing is there, we will not be harmed by the Resentment Slave. Now, counting the time, the fish should have already been killed by the Resentment Slave; let's go collect the Opportunity."

The sound of conversation followed immediately, and it was getting closer.

Finally, in the Unknown Darkness, two things that could barely be called human slowly appeared in front of Li Heng and An Yu, not even bothering to hide their aura, swaggering about.

Then, they saw the safe and sound Li Heng and An Yu.

They were stunned at the sight, looked at Li Heng and the other, and then looked at the imprisoned Resentment Slave on the side. Instantly, without the slightest hesitation, they used all their strength, turned around, and ran.

Damn it, we hit an iron plate!

How could we encounter an existence capable of imprisoning a Resentment Slave at this depth? This shouldn't be! They cursed inwardly, then ran even faster, wishing they had grown a few more legs.

An Yu finally reacted at this moment, immediately realizing that this was a trap, a setup, and a look of anger appeared on her face.

Spending all day hunting hawks, only to have one's eyes pecked out by a hawk today?

I used to fish, but now I am being fished?

Instantly, he was furious and intended to strike and pursue.

"No need, let them go, they will come back."

Li Heng spoke nonchalantly, casting his attention back to this Grudge Slave, even considering whether to use the Appraisal Technique to check the background of this Grudge Slave.

Seeing that Li Heng did not pursue, the two fleeing creatures breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that even if that person could restrain the Grudge Slave, he must have paid a price.

"Little brother, this method is really unreliable!"

"Big brother, how was I supposed to know such a fierce person existed?"

"Sigh, what should we do now?"

"How about we go back? Anyway, we caught a few fish on this trip and obtained a lot of resources; it's time to stop."

"Yes, little brother is right, it is time to wash our hands of this."

As the two fellows spoke, they sighed repeatedly. They relied on fishing to make a living, and now that they had lost their fishing tool, what were they to do? It wasn't as if they could just wash their hands of it that easily.

But though they thought that, they dared not go find Li Heng. Thus, without looking back, they left in the opposite direction of Li Heng and his companion.

As they walked, they suddenly discovered a red light blooming ahead. They were puzzled; what was going on? Was there a fortuitous encounter with red light on the way home?

Then, they saw An Yu glowing with red light.

And Li Heng, who was still studying the Grudge Slave!
